Description

Walpole-Nornalup National Park is a renowned national park in Western Australia, known for its towering karri and tingle trees.

The park is part of the larger Walpole Wilderness Area, which is a biodiversity hotspot. The area has a rich history, with the Noongar peoples having inhabited the region for thousands of years. The park was first declared in 1910 and has since become a popular tourist destination. One of the main attractions is the Valley of the Giants, which features the Tree Top Walk and the "Ancient Empire" walk among the tingle trees. Conspicuous Beach is another popular spot for whale and dolphin watching. The park's ecosystem extends to the coast, providing diverse habitats from forest to coastal heathland. The park also plays a role in fire management, with fuel reduction backburning conducted to reduce the risk of bushfires. The Bibbulmun Track, a long-distance hiking trail, passes through the park, offering adventurous opportunities for hikers.
